To quantify the contribution of newly synthesized cholesterol to total plasma and biliary cholesterol under physiological conditions, unrestrained rats were infused intravenously with [1-C-13]acetate (0.6 mmol/h per kg) from 12:00 to 24:00 h, and fractional and absolute cholesterol-synthesis rates were determined by mass isotopomer distribution analysis (MIDA). As bile diversion leads to changes in cholesterol metabolism, rats were equipped with permanent catheters in the bile duct and duodenum, allowing sampling of small amounts of bile from an intact enterohepatic circulation. For comparison, rats with chronic bile diversion were also studied. Fractional synthesis of plasma cholesterol was 10.8 +/- 1.7% (mean +/- S.D.) after 12 h in rats with intact circulation. Fractional synthesis of biliary cholesterol was significantly higher than that of plasma cholesterol, i.e. 16.5 +/- 2.0% (P |
